Young Africans consider move to bring Stephane Aziz Ki back from Al-Ittihad

Burkina Faso and Ivory Coast midfielder Stephane Aziz Ki is being linked with a return to Young Africans from Libyan Premier League club Al-Ittihad.

Aziz Ki, 30, joined Al-Ittihad from Wydad AC on 24 January 2026 in a deal worth €714,000. A move back to Young Africans would reunite him with the Tanzanian club he represented between 2022 and 2025.

The attacking midfielder made 27 appearances in the CAF Champions League, scoring nine goals and providing two assists. He also registered seven goals and one assist in 25 CAF Confederation Cup appearances.

Aziz Ki was named Midfielder of the Year during the 2023-24 season while at Young Africans. He had joined the club from Ivorian side ASEC Mimosas in July 2022 after beginning his senior career in Europe with Spanish and Cypriot clubs.

His previous spell at Young Africans ended when he moved to Wydad in June 2025 for a reported €353,000. He spent seven months with the Moroccan club before transferring to Al-Ittihad.

Aziz Ki’s current market value is listed at €300,000. He remains an Al-Ittihad player, with Young Africans now identified as the club linked with a possible move.
